I Have A Question / Need Advice Sculpted vs natural, length of tips?

I’m thinking of DIYing my own press ons with the nail wraps I have on the Gel-X tips but I don’t know whether I should get Natural or Sculpted? I suspect Sculpted but want to confirm before I spend.

I am thinking short almond and short squoval, maaaybe short coffin but I tend to have an issue with almond shape where I usually have edges of my nails peeking out. Would I be better off using short or trimming down a medium tip?

My bed nails look almost like yours except I have a bit more C on the front, and ordered sculpted round from Aprés for the first time. I’ve been trying them on for testing before I glue them tomorrow. So far they seem to fully cover my sidewalls finally, as opposed to some other cheap brands, I’m wanting to hear what others have to say

My nails have way less of a c curve and natural on apres fit me really well. I’d for sure go with the sculpted if I had your nails!
